If I can be honest, I usually talk to others and hear, “I don’t need change” or “I don’t think I need personal growth.” We, as human beings, are afraid of growth and change. In reality, we need personal development, growth, and identity. Personal development is developing one’s intelligence, enhancing integrity character, and building human character.
Personal growth is maturing in your daily life and your building of characteristics. Maturing is growing wiser in everyday culture and your lifestyle. Growth is a process that feels uncomfortable at times or all the time. What you need to know about personal growth is that you are the growth. Growth takes time and is a priceless principle in our lives. It becomes more responsible, reliable, determined, and focused. It makes you realize that you are dedicated to what matters in your life and your dreams are unimaginable.
Personal identity is who you are and how you identify yourself. Identity crisis is something we all bump heads with in life. Some don’t understand or are still searching to find out the purpose. Yes, I said “purpose” is our calling in life, such as our gifts, talents, and being in everything we do. Purpose defines who you are created to be and everything within you that exists. Purpose is a lifelong journey that ignites your dreams and visions in this world.
In other words, I am saying personal development goes a long way and takes work. Yes, we need personal development personally, spiritually, and professionally. If you are growing which can be in different seasons in your life, you need to keep growing. Personal development should never stop in life or within our surroundings. As a business woman, woman of faith, and woman of many hats I should never diminish my character in developing and you shouldn’t either.
